Austrailia's great race, the Bathurst 1000 takes place this weekend. While many outside of Australia are not familar with the race, for that countries motorsports fans and athletes it is the pinicle of racing for them. Just as the Indy 500 or Daytona 500 are for American's, the Monaco Grand Prix or the 24 Hours of Le Mans are for Sports Car fans, that is what Bathurst meens to Australians.

The Bathurst track at Mount Panarama is a "street course" but think of it more as a mountain road turned into a racetrack rather than the typical image that comes to mind when you think street course. We will be showing videos throughout the week of the track, laps of the track, and exciting moments for years past.

It was a typical reality show format, "x" number come in, every week there are challenge and at the end of the show, someone goes home. The show was OK, but it was clear there were two or three contestents that were above and beyond everyone else, and Cam was one of them. The final contest was Cam against Andy and each had two laps to put in a qualifying time in a V8 Supercar, the winner would be the one with the quickest lap time. In the end, Cam won going a tenth and a half quicker than Andy.

Did we mention that Cam doesn't even have a full license to drive on the road? However he Cam is in contention to win the Australian Formula Ford championship, so it's not like he doesn't have credentials!

So, here is a quick video put together to introduce eveyone to Cam Waters from the Shannons Supercar Showdown reality show. Good luck to Cam, the youngest person to drive a V8 Supercar in competition, and everyone else racing up at "The Mountain" this weekend.
